But yeah, this sort of shit is a way that gender roles negatively affect men. The pressure on men not to do things that come across as feminine or gay is kind of bizarre.
Well it has prolly got to do with the instincts of mankind. Back when we were cavemen, our true instincts were formed. Eg; The fact we like boobs is cuz they produce the milk we get fed. And considering this is the mothers job, its only natural for any kind of person to have affinity towards women. The men were the hunters, the women were at home with the family. This might seem kinda weird, but the human(ape)-kind has been around for about 2.2 million years. Thats enough time to develop such feelings, don't you think?
2.2 million years? More like around 200,000 years. Prior to that we weren't yet homo sapiens.
Also ItDuz's point was that Ifidieyoung's first statement implied it's normal for a girl to find another girl 'super hot', but abnormal for a guy to find another guy 'super hot'. What have mammary glands and cave-people got to do with that? Why is it "only natural for any kind of person to have affinity towards women" and not 'only natural' for any kind of person to have affinity towards men? Boobs?!
No it's not, you don't answer why it isn't natural for any kind of person to have affinity towards men? Just because they don't produce milk? Because it seems ridiculous to me to suggest the primary reason a woman might find another woman beautiful is because they have boobs. I think your theories about our underlying instinctive motivations are dubious.
I did. Back when we were cavemen, it were the woman who took care for the children, male or female.
And by the way, i'm not saying this is the only reason, nor am i saying its the most important reason.
And besides that, this is not my theory. This is a proven fact that was simply taught to me.
You're saying (correct me if I am wrong):
In caveman times women raised children and gave them breast-milk from their breasts. This means women can find other women naturally 'super-hot' because they have breasts like the cave-mothers and a caring nature. This means men can't find men naturally 'super hot' because men don't have breasts and were hunter-gatherers in caveman times, not nurturing caregivers.
Is it normal to find a girl super hot?

So it's only normal to think your same gender are attractive if you are female, yet just crazy if a guy thinks it about male friends?
Ugh. People say I am sexist.

Homophobia works in mysterious ways. D:

I disagree. I'm a straight male and I find some men very attractive.

Same. I am heterosexual and think there are amazingly attractive men.
Well it has prolly got to do with the instincts of mankind. Back when we were cavemen, our true instincts were formed. Eg; The fact we like boobs is cuz they produce the milk we get fed.

The answer to your question is in my comment above. And 2.2 million years is long enough to form the primal instincts, homo sapiens or not.

It is theory. It isn't proven fact.
You're saying (correct me if I am wrong):
In caveman times women raised children and gave them breast-milk from their breasts. This means women can find other women naturally 'super-hot' because they have breasts like the cave-mothers and a caring nature. This means men can't find men naturally 'super hot' because men don't have breasts and were hunter-gatherers in caveman times, not nurturing caregivers.
:/
There are many things wrong with this idea.
